We had to learn more about the lives of Dutch painters and it was to learn more about their lives. I never read the book, but I am interested to read it. Thanks for the great review.Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11698452908549878264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-82418028954101736872010-05-03T06:26:30.884-04:002010-05-03T06:26:30.884-04:00Marg - I think I know what you mean.

I just finished The Lady and the Unicorn on audio and while it was ok it didn't have the same sense of urgency to finish it - I could wait until the next time. <br /><br />Christine - Amy highly recommended To Dance With Kings as well. I will have to look into that one. I have The Venetian Mask on my shelf right now.<br /><br />Rowenna and Librarypat - I know I saw the movie when I originally read it, but I don't remember it. I guess I will have to Neflix it and refresh my memory.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609161113240681299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-66723900774779834552010-05-02T23:18:28.371-04:002010-05-02T23:18:28.371-04:00I read this book a number of years ago.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to replicate that enjoyment and satisfaction with any of Chevalier's other books, but I keep on trying.Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508430635744720721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-13354669201738749052010-05-02T18:06:31.620-04:002010-05-02T18:06:31.620-04:00Heather, Rosalind Laker is one of my favorite hist...Heather, Rosalind Laker is one of my favorite historical romance authors.

I was not aware it was made into a movie. The movie trailer certainly got my attention. <br />Sigh, one more book (rather 2) for my TBR list.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-33556138710404269662010-04-30T09:09:09.363-04:002010-04-30T09:09:09.363-04:00I haven't read The Golden Tulip but really enj...I haven't read The Golden Tulip but really enjoyed Pearl Earring...I felt sorry for Caterina in that one.
